Bf said something that put me in shock!

Or

BACKSTORY: My boyfriend and I have been together for almost a year and a half. When we first started dating he had no job, he was going to school but then quit school all together. We were also doing long distance so I only seen him 2x a month. Now he has a job and he’s been working his ass of ever since he started and we also live together. We’ve been through a rough patch together but we made it. So this morning we were just casually talking about our day and how much we love each other and then he called me his “love of my life.” I was literally shocked I didn’t know what to say and just kissed and hugged him. I mean is this a good thing? I don’t wanna overexcite it but it just felt good to hear 😌.
